Date/Time: Every Wednesday, 5.30-8.00
Location: Business School, Room (1.32) - Click on the links for directions
Our Arabic Calligraphy Classes are returning on Wednesday 2nd February. They'll be every Wednesday in the Business School, Room 1.32 at 5.30pm. These classes, like all of them are open to students and non-students, total beginners and more experienced calligraphers alike.
You don't need to be familiar with the Arabic script as this will be taught to you as we cover each letter. If you've never been to our classes and would like to try them out, you are more than welcome. They are open to students and non-students and you don't need to bring any equipment with you. Each session costs £4 (£3.50 for members) but you're first trial session will only be for £1.
The classes will run from 5.30 to 8.00 every Wednesday in the University Business School, Room 1.32. Information on how to get there are detailed below.
If you like, you can also pay for a terms worth of classes (at least 11 classes, maybe more) at £30.

exactly what date do these classes start?
Hi,
The classes run during University term time so they've ended for this year. The classes run weekly and will restart during the week beginning Monday 26th September. The exact day of the first session and the venue is still to be confirmed, but the time will probably be 5.30 - 7.30 and will cost £3.50 per session.
If you send us your email address, I will email you the details once all the details have been confirmed.
Regards

Assalamu Alaykum,
You can pay altogether if you like at our first session, which will be on Wednesday 28th September at 6.00. You don't need to bring anything with you, but if you already have materials for Arabic calligraphy, you're welcome to bring them.
The first 11 classes will introduce you to all the letters in their isolated forms and then in the second 11 classes (after Christmas), you'll start joining the letters up. This timetable is just a general one but you're the one that's ultimately in charge of how fast you go. The more you practise, the more confident you become and the quicker you can progress. After the first 11, provided you do practise, you should be confident to do some small pieces.
Also, doing Arabic calligraphy in canvas with pens and inks is quite difficult because of the texture, but if you try out other materials, you should get some good results.
